Your Wi-Fi speed depends on several factors, such as:  

  • The age of your computer or other devices 
  • ​Devices’ wireless standards 
  • Devices distances from your wireless gateway 
  • Number of devices connected at once 
  • Interference from other electrical equipment/devices 
  • Interference from your neighbor’s home network 
  • Objects in the way (i.e. home and wall construction, furniture, etc.). 


It is very difficult to quantify interference, and the average consumer is unable to do so without special equipment or applications. For information regarding your wireless connection vs wired connection please see the attached document.
